This week’s Torah portion, Vayeira, reminds us that faith and legacy often take root in the simple act of showing up. When Abraham plants a tamarisk tree, he establishes a living covenant — a promise that continues to grow long after him. My prayer Seeking Connection begins with the word Hineini — “Here I am” — and that sacred readiness has become my mantra as I accompany my daughter on her cancer journey. I can’t control the path ahead, but I can choose how I show up in this moment: with love, courage, and faith. Each prayer, each act of compassion, is a seed we plant — our legacy in the making.
